Definition of political subdivision

Definition: A political subdivision is a part of a state that is responsible for carrying out local government functions.

Examples:

  • Counties
  • Cities
  • Townships
  • Boroughs
  • Villages

These examples illustrate how political subdivisions are created to help manage and govern smaller areas within a state. For example, counties are responsible for providing services like law enforcement, public health, and road maintenance to residents within their boundaries. Cities and towns may have their own police departments, fire departments, and other services that are specific to their needs. Boroughs and villages are similar to cities and towns, but may have different forms of government or be located in more rural areas.

It's every lawyer's dream to help shape the law, not just react to it.
